Details of the Moot Court Competition

The Surana & Surana National Corporate Law Moot was created to provide opportunities for learning the development of jurisprudence on emerging trends in Corporate Law as well as developing cutting-edge skills in research, writing, and advocacy.

The Surana & Surana National Corporate Law Moot Court Competition will include a judgement writing competition with the following principles and goals:

Aside from the primary principle of promoting the rule of law and upholding justice, a judgement serves a social and civic function.
To accomplish the foregoing, it must “execute with clarity of thought, explain the decision to the parties, communicate reasons for the decision to the public, and provide a reason for an appeal court to consider.”
To cultivate a well-balanced and prudent mind.
Prevent the abuse of the legal system.
